title: [The chemical peel].
abstract: The authors describe the chemical peeling or desquamation method, which more precisely consists of cutaneous exfoliation designed to promote young-looking skin. They are not concerned with the value of exfoliation as a method to prevent skin cancer, the effect of which has been studied by many authors, namely in relation to acnitic (senile) keratosis, radiodermatitis, leukoplasia, scleroderma pigmentosum, epithelioma.
